Michael, I do not have the 35 in either the Leica or the Canon...I do have the 24 1.4L in EOS and a 50 1.0 Noctilux for my M6. While the 24 1.4L is an out standing lens when it comes to low light nothing works as well as an M6...When shooting in dark locale my EOS bodies go in the bag and the M6 comes out...I almost never get missed focus shots even in light so dim I can hardly see with the M6, in those low light often my EOS 1n bodies miss focus badly.
If it is for exclusively low light work you want get the Sumilux...if you want a lens to use on an extreemly versitle camera body with high sync speeds and auto flash fill features get the Canon one. I am sure they are both great lenses, and if the 35 1.4 is anything like the 24 1.4 it is a killer lens, and is very well built. The most recent summilux is supposed to be one of the best 35mm lenses made. -- Harrison McClary Harrison McClary Photography http://www.mcclary.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] Once upon a time Michael Volow wrote: >Usefulness of EOS 35mm/ f1.4 as an available light lens, compared to manual >focus equivalent (35mm 1.4 Nikor AIS), or compared to rangefinder equivalent >(35mm 1.4 Aspheric Summilux)?
